HOT TAKE: Bellinger isn't even the best player in the NL with a last name starting with those 4 letters.

bell is a great hitter this year, but he gives away half of his value in the field and he can't run

Bellinger has a bWAR of 5.3 which is insane

it's remarkable how he's cut his strikeout rate, especially with that big looping swing

If the Barves' bullpen can get their shit right, I see them winning the East again. Big if though.

On Tuesday, a source told MLB.com's Mark Feinsand that the Yankees and Braves had emerged as frontrunners for Keuchel, with offers in the same ballpark. Soon after, however, a second source told Feinsand that the Yankees appear to be the true favorites, with Atlanta part of a second tier of suitors, including the Twins and possibly the Cardinals.

Sources: #Mariners calling up RHP Tayler Scott, who will become first South African native to pitch in majors (Gift Ngoepe became first position player in 2017).

Jose Ramirez has a .200/.297/.300 line going right now, which is even more alarming when you consider he completely fell off a cliff to finish up 2018 after arguably being the front runner for MVP for the portion of the season leading up to that precipice.

White Sox seem to be doing a bit better than expected. While there is obviously room for collapse, most people had them picked for 100 losses and right now they are pretty middling at 30-33.
I guess someone has to pickup wins from all those clubs in the AL that seem to be tanking on purpose.

According to Leo López, who works as David Ortiz’s assistant and press representative, his last surgery ended at 3:30am and he’ll remain in intensive care for the next 24 hours.

that looked like a hit. vid of the shooting is out there – as are many vids of the shooter getting the shit kicked out of him. this is crazy.
― Mad Piratical (The Cursed Return of the Dastardly Thermo Thinwall), Monday, 10 June 2019 15:34 (five years ago) link
it's pretty insane, i'm glad he's gonna be okay. the suspect was allegedly involved in the drug business, which makes me wonder if Papi's been outspoken against the drug trade down there in a way that would make him a target. or if this was a case of really unfortunate mistaken identity, which seems very unlikely.
― omar little, Monday, 10 June 2019 15:49 (five years ago) link
my guess was that someone decided to shake the guy down at some point and Ortiz wouldn't pay. (total stab in the dark)
― Mad Piratical (The Cursed Return of the Dastardly Thermo Thinwall), Monday, 10 June 2019 17:02 (five years ago) link
the video of the shooting is very odd. i can't imagine that it was contractual/professional bcuz papi quite easily could've been killed by a better or... more motivated shooter? the guy could've just walked up and shot him in the head or shot him more than once in the torso etc... i find the whole thing pretty puzzling. you guys are better ppl than me too bcuz my first thought is that he's secretly got his hands in drugs or w/e... my mind went to that recent hanley ramirez scandal
